Bamboo Leaf Qing Ming

Click to enlarge

This Qing Ming is the pinnacle of classic green teas from the West Lake area of Hangzhou, China. This completely hand-made tea is picked before the spring rains and prepared from only one bud and one tender leaf. A pound of this precious tea contains 25,000 bud and leaf sets.

Enjoy this refreshing tea in a glass and watch the leaves point straight down, needle like, as they float in the water. It's smooth appearance and delicate green colour will produce a pale golden brew with a slightly sweet taste.
